Happy Fourth!!

The fourth of July can easily go down in the books as my favorite holiday. I still remember from my childhood how much fun we always had. I want my kids to have the same fond memories of July 4th when they are adults. So yesterday we woke up early and went the church breakfast and parade where we got to see our friends and then walk in the parade. It was cute watching all the little kids with their decorated bikes, wagons and scooters. After the parade we went home for a nap, we were going to have a long day ahead of us. After nap time we got ready and headed to Aunt Lezlie's and Uncle Dustin's house. Lezlie really went all out, she had every aspect of our afternoon and evening planned and it was perfect! The my girls Auntie Sam and Leila got to play in the little pool outside and enjoy hot dogs and then mud pies. Grandma Liza, Grandpa Mike and Grandma Marj were all there too so the kids had fun hanging with them since they love, love, love their grandparents! So after the kids were set the adults and I may only be speaking for my self got to pig out on delicious BBQ. Dustin's dad made hamburgers, hot dogs, pork ribs, beef ribs, fillet and the best baked beans ever! I haven't eaten so much in a long time!! After we ate and had some cake we got the kids back in their cute clothes and headed out to Boulder City for the firework show. It was actually a really nice night, not too hot at all and we had a great spot out in left field of a baseball diamond. The kids were running around playing and then the fireworks started. All the kids loved them. It was a really nice show even though we were interupted by the sprinklers that someone forgot to shut off! Over all by the end of last night we were all exhausted but it was so worth it to have such a fun filled day!
